In a rollercoaster match, world number three Hewett started strongly to take the first set 6-3.

But Reid hit back to win the second with the loss of only one game. Reid looked to be on course to take the win at 3-2 in the third but Hewett reeled off four games in succession to see out a 6-3, 1-6, 6-3 victory.

Reid and Hewett teamed up in the doubles and again there was a semi-final knockout for the Burgh star.

World number one Gustavo Fernandez, who beat Hewett in the singles final, and Dutchman Maikel Scheffers proved too good over three close sets as they took a 3-6, 6-1, 7-5 win.
